Loorq is the speech coach on your Mac. It catches the ums, likes and you-knows you can't hear yourself saying, and shows them to you the moment you stop talking. See your baseline today. Watch it fall this month.
macOS 14+ · Apple Silicon · 7-day full trial, no account needed
Every dictation tool quietly erases your filler words, so you never find out you say them. Loorq is built the other way around: it shows you every one, right after you speak, because awareness is how they actually stop. The clean text is included. The coach is the point.
The moment you stop talking, a card unfurls from the notch: the count, the crutch words, the one thing to fix next. Tap an um to hear it in your own voice.
Day one sets your baseline. You pick one goal. The rate falls because you finally know where the ums live. Progress you can screenshot.
Hold a key, talk, release. On-device Whisper puts clean text wherever your cursor is. The ums go to your scorecard instead of your document.
Most Loorq users already pay for a dictation tool, and they keep it. Zero switching cost. Same keypress, one new superpower.
Flip on coaching-only mode and Loorq stops typing entirely: your current tool keeps writing your words while Loorq counts what it hears and hands you the scorecard.
It can coach your side of meetings too, and it asks before it ever listens.
Raw counts punish you for talking more. Loorq tracks confirmed fillers per 100 words against your own baseline, so a heavy day of speaking never reads as a relapse.
Day one sets your baseline. You pick one goal. Every surface in the app answers the same question: am I getting better?
Nothing you say ever leaves your Mac. Not the audio, not the transcript, not the counts.
Most speech tools send your voice to the cloud; it's in their privacy policies. Loorq's answer is simpler: there's nothing to send.
Filler words fade when you actually hear yourself say them. That's the core of Habit Reversal Training, the best-studied method for reducing speech disfluencies. Loorq automates the loop practitioners assign by hand: record, review, retry. Evidence-based, not therapy, and deliberately conservative: it undercounts rather than ever accusing you of an um you didn't say.
7-day full trial. Every feature, no account, no card. While the launch lasts, the lifetime is on the table. The subscriptions aren't going anywhere.

Only if you say yes, every time. When Loorq detects a meeting app using the mic, it asks. It hears your own microphone only, never the other side, never system audio. You can also turn auto-coach on and start or stop a sidecar session manually from the menu bar.
You'll see your starting point the first day, most people are surprised by it. From there the method is simple and well studied: when you can see your filler words, you start catching them yourself, and the rate falls week over week. Loorq keeps the score so you can watch it happen.
No, and you shouldn't. Coaching-only mode lets Wispr Flow, Superwhisper or anything else keep typing while Loorq coaches. If you do dictate with Loorq, you get both in one keypress.
English at launch. More languages are coming once the coaching is excellent in one.
